“I’m so glad I found Rebecca! She’s very good with animals and my dog is always happy with her and her furry friends! I appreciate that Rebecca sends me the videos with my dog throughout the day so I know how’s my dog doing. I definitely will come back again when I need a daycare or boarding for my doggo! Rebecca and her fiancé are doing a great job on keeping the animals safe and happy under their care!”


2. Arlissa S.

“Arlissa was so flexible on our rather last minute request for her to watch our pups for a day! The pups and I felt welcome & she was able to entice our shy (pandemic) pups to come out and play in her lovely backyard with other friendly dogs and she even had a doggy pool. And: she took awesome pictures of our pups!!! Thank you so much Arlissa”

9. Katherine L.


“I was coming to a Dayton Ohio for work and I was bringing my mini golden doodle pup along. I needed someone trustworthy to watch my baby boy, Arlo. I came across Katherine’s profile and immediately had that instinct that she was the one 😊 she was accommodating to my over protective mommy needs and agreed to hop on a zoom call with me beforehand. She was warm, nice and kind. It also helped she has 3 adorable little fur baby girls too. For the 4 days I was here for work she would take care of Arlo for me all day. She was extremely responsive and would send me pictures and videos all day without me even having to ask. She has a nice big fenced in backyard that Arlo loved running around freely in all day. Each evening I would pick him up he was exhausted from having fun playing all day. (His besty was her dog, Vanilla) 😊 I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She made my experience great and worry free. Thank you so much for taking great care of Arlo.”


10. Kathy & Brad L.

“Kathy and her husband were absolutely amazing - they took my pup for daycare last minute and she had the BEST time with them, their adorable dogs, and daughters! I 100% recommend booking with them!!”


11. Daphne B.

“Highly recommend Daphne. It was the first time leaving our puppy and Daphne and her family were great and so welcoming from the meet and greet to final pick up. Daphne sent pics and videos throughout the day and our puppy was clearly happy and being well cared for. All aspects of our experience 5 stars!!”


12. Loree & Jeff S.

“Absolutely exceptional! Our experience with Loree was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we reached out, her professionalism and genuine love for animals shone through. Our furry family member was treated like royalty during their stay, receiving ample love, attention, and care. Communication was seamless throughout the entire process. We received regular updates, including adorable photos and videos, which truly eased our minds while we were away. It was evident that our dog was not only well looked after but also cherished during their time with Loree. Loree went above and beyond to accommodate our dog's specific needs and preferences, ensuring their comfort and happiness at all times. We returned home to a happy and content pup, which is the greatest testament to the quality of care provided. We cannot recommend Loree highly enough. If you're searching for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog sitter who treats your pet like family, look no further. Loree is simply the best in the business. Five stars doesn't seem like enough to express our gratitude!”

15. Jessica & Carol H.

By the second day my pups stayed with her, they were running right to her which showed me they were comfortable and happy there :) She is very compassionate and sent updates throughout the day on how my pups were doing. I am very grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her!!!”


19. Sebrina C.
About: I have been around & taken care of animals almost all my life. I currently have no pets of my own I have owned a dog in the past. I have some experience walking and sitting my family members animals. I live in a fairly quiet neighborhood with a park just a few minutes away from my home. I joined rover to be able to help with other animals & share my love during my time with them however you choose to book. I work from home so I will have full attention to meet all requirements for each & every pet.I don’t usually like to leave my house much while boarding so if I do it would be something important Always keep a clean & safe environment for them, also try to stick to their routine so they can be comfortable with a new person


20. Morgan C.
About: I have always been around animals growing up! My first ever job when I was 10, was caring for my family friends dog. As soon as I got off the school bus I would walk a couple miles to their home to walk, feed and play with their dog. I work a 9-6 job as an Education Support Specialist at a local Early Learning Center. I get a long lunch break and spend that time going home. I’m also in the Army National Guard but constantly keep my schedule on here updated! All of my family is local so I am home for all the holidays as well. I am a home body so I love chilling with animals at my own home. I also enjoy going on long walks to get my steps in!
